This vibrant village within a village has many wonders to offer; history, culture, heritage, wine tasting, bakeries, markets, restaurants, culinary delights, shops and specialty stores all wrapped in a timeless history within your grasp.

I’m starting the Cultural Heritage Tours in the North End not only because I live here, but growing up in an Italian American home I see three values of the North End that were installed in me as child: family, respect and tradition.
